They all tend to speak multiple languages. Swiss German is the large majority of speakers in Switzerland, and the minority speakers tend to know it as well. They all also tend to know English.

According to a swiss friend

>Swiss italians speak italian and either german, french, or both.
>Swiss germans speak german and a lot of them speak/understand french.
>Swiss french typically only speak french, few know german.

So how come English isn't one of the main languages in Switzerland then. As in an official language. If it was, I would fuck off there quicker than I could nut over a milf.

Because if a Swiss Italian can't speak to a Swiss German via one of their official languages and then they switch to English, why not make English an official language there? England doesn't have to do anything with Swiss history.

Using UK as an example, how often do you think someone from Manchester will interact with someone from Glasgow - or even better, with an Irish speaker in N. Ireland? Not much, do you agree? So it's roughly the same deal in Switzerland, most of the time Lombards will be surrounded by more Lombards, Romands by more French speakers, etc.

The same applies to the gov. St. Gallen canton will offer services in German, Ticino in Italian. Bern will offer in German and French. For the federation as a whole, I assume they offer services in multiple languages (standard German, standard French, standard Italian and maybe Romansch too).

Also. In general, even non-German speakers will have a good grasp of Standard German.
